Default Looking for some advice, which plate?

I did a few searches but really couldn't find what I was looking for. Every company has a plate that they swear by. I have a forged 408 with a Vic jr and elbow. I'm looking to work up to a 300 shot and possibly a bit more depending on how things hold up but I don't want to invest in a fogger set up because I'm thinking of going turbo in the future. I don't run in a class so rules don't matter. I would like for the kit to be able to grow as everything progresses and I read the Edelbrock plates can do that going to a two stage system.

I'm looking for the best plate at that power level, any advice?

Have you seen our Stinger Plate?



We also have a dual stage Version!



The cylinder to cylinder distribution on these setups can't be matched! The single entry Stinger II plate can flow over 600 horsepower and the dual entry plate can flow over 800. Let me know if you have any questions.

Actually I have and am very interested. I saw the special you guys posted on facebook for the Stinger I plates. What's a part number I can use for my combo so I can price it?

The stinger I is a single stage only plate. For pricing, you can deduct $100 from the price of the current stinger II systems. I'm not sure what intake you have but we only have 4500 Stinger I's left. Feel free to give me a call!

I'm running a vic jr with efi. I was looking at this kit http://www.nitrousoutlet.com/carbure...-50-500hp.html

Is this the one for me?

Yes that would work just fine for you. Remember though, that the Stinger I will max out around 400hp in that configuration.

Oh ok. How does this compare to the puck? Sorry, it's hard for me to talk on the phone while at work.

No worries. They are pretty comparable as far as performance. Personally, I like that the Puck has discharges for each cylinder rather than fogging the intake tract. You can't go wrong either way!

Ya the puck seems a bit better but is the extra money worth it? And when bought, am I paying for a complete kit, solenoids, lines, bottle...or just the puck and install? You can pm details or put it here, either way.

Installation of the puck into your intake is a flat $350 fee(puck included). The remainder of the setup will vary in price depending on how you would like to set it up. Typically an EFI setup with plumbing labor is $609.99 with a 10lb bottle. So the setup with the puck installed, plumbing labor, lines, solenoids and a bottle comes out to $960. I hope I explained that right lol. It would look like the picture below.

One more question, I read about the puck and how it does not effect airflow, what about this plate? It looks to take up a lot of my open area in the intake, I'm EFI.

It wont affect airflow anymore than your elbow will. This doesn't sound like a max effort NA build so I wouldn't worry too much about it. Some people have gone in and machined the plate to minimize the thickness of the bars but I don't see it making that big of a difference.

True, It won't be going down the track without spraying typically but it will see some street duty N/A.

For reference, I had another customer with the Puck on a 402 LS2 pick up 397rwhp on a 93 jet. They both make killer power!
